I finally have a day off work and it is no less busy! This morning the Prince and I left early to run errands only to return home and find the weather changed from sunny and fine to heavy rains 
My realm is quite prone to experiencing all four seasons in the space of a day. After noon I had an interview for a new position, which I was successful in securing. I’m looking forward to starting there next week.
I am very happy that my “Kyoko Fukada in Shimotsuma Monogatari” photo book arrived today! It is full of such beautiful images 
The first half of the book contains photoshoots of the lovely Miss Fukada in various lolita dresses. There are some very imaginitive settings that have given me lots of ideas for my own shoots! I wish I had a real photography studio though, the lighting in my Palace is not suited to it at all. The second half of the book is full of stills from the movie, as well as behind-the-scenes pictures and interviews. It is quite fascinating for a fangirl such as I!
Shimotsuma Monogatari holds a very special place in my heart, and I watch it whenever I’m feeling down or uninspired. It lifts my spirits and reminds me why I love Lolita.. and it makes me want all her pretty dresses too!
